What Shows Am I Watching This Week?

Hello everyone and welcome back! Let's dive in shall we?

The Irregular At Magic High School Season 2 Episode 7

This week I had the thought that it's really kind of ridiculous that the USNA could sneak all the way into Japan and try to assassinate one of the highest ranked magicians in the Japanese military but then again I suppose if they kept it secret and killed him before the Japanese military had any idea, they could always play dumb. Unfortunately for them Tatsuya was way out of their league and he was able to not only defeat Lina but also all the troops that were sent to capture him as well making a copy of all the footage they got of him and deleting the rest. With this evidence I'm fairly certain that the Yotsuba clan blackmailed the USNA into leave Japan maybe by being like you are illegally in this country and trying to kill our Japanese citizens without any right. What's interesting though is that it looks like they left Lina and I wonder if that's cause the Major thinks that Lina's been compromised (which technically she is with how she fell in love with Tatsuya and became such good friends with the other students) but at the same time we saw her in the military in the Irregular At Magic High School movie so maybe she'll help stop the parasites and get reinstated. It was also interesting to note that the Saegusa clan was following Tatsuya too and I wonder if this is more of what Mayumi hinted at in the first season with how the nine ruling clans were not happy with Tatsuya being a badass who's not affiliated with a clan (or so they think.) Another important thing to note is the parasite that jumped into Pixie explained how the parasites actually have no motivations or desires until they enter a host body which makes me think once again that this whole thing is a big elaborate plot on the part of the bad guys who want to rule the magic world.

The Mandalorian Season 2 Episode 4

I should be annoyed that we took a detour from Trask to Ashoka but honestly I didn't expect that we would get two huge cameos back to back not to mention the fact that the Razorcrest was a complete mess so obviously step one would be for Din to get it fixed! In fact I ended up enjoying this episode a lot cause we got to see old friends again and we progressed the plot with Moff Gideon too. We found out that the reason the Empire wanted Baby Yoda was so they could experiment with it's blood to make as I'm assuming more Force-sensitive people cause they knew what a terrifying force Darth Vader was but I don't know if it works that way cause though we do know that children of Jedi usually are Force-sensitive, is it as simple as DNA or blood? Doesn't that really just suck the magic out of Star Wars?? Either way he ended up getting a spy to place a tracker on the Razorcrest and I high key hope that he swoops down to attack when Din and Baby Yoda are with Ahsoka! I also have to say that it's so ironic cause if only Din knew that Gideon had the Dark Saber cause then he could have told Bo Katan that Gideon is after Baby Yoda so if she stuck with him, she'd eventually find Gideon and get the Dark Saber back. I also liked the small plot point where Cara Dune got an open invite into joining the New Republic though part of me wished they had talked about Leia if they were also talking about Alderaan!
